Koons, MSW, LISW "Deborah does a masterful job of integrating DBT Skills and music which makes learning fun and interesting". -Miles Dial, Ph.D "I finally tried out a group around Deborah Spiegel's "Pro's and Con's" chant from her book with the adolescents today! I started with body percussion, moving into using percussion instruments. The adolescents LOVED IT! They talked about how bored they are sitting in DBT groups where it's all talking so to have them practice mindfulness and discuss the skills around something active was very successful!
